Fans of the popular Muslim-owned Meokja by JUNGGA are in luck!
Those residing in the North no longer need to travel to GR.iD for their fix of Muslim-friendly street food, as Korean-born Muslim revert Chef Jung has done it again.
His latest concept, Sangwoo Street, has finally opened at Kedai Kopi in Yishun, dishing out authentic Korean eats prepared using halal ingredients at relatively affordable prices.
I’m happy to see that the Tteokbokki (S$5), perfectly chewy rice cakes bathed in a well-balanced sweet and spicy sauce, take center stage here. I remember falling head over heels for it when I first tried it at Meokja, so in other words, they are a must-order.
Pair your tteokbokki with a selection of kimbap like the tuna-based Chamchi (S$6.50), fried shrimp-stuffed Saewoo (S$7), and the classic Bulgogi (S$7). We can be friends if you also enjoy dipping your kimbap into tteokbokki sauce — it’s a pairing that always, always hits the spot.
Kimbap is also exclusive to this Yishun outlet, so you bet I’ll be getting my hands on some soon!
Those looking for extra comfort can order the hearty Sangwoo Stew (S$7.50) and Twigim (S$7), a popular deep-fried street snack that’s kinda like Korean tempura.
Although the menu here isn’t as extensive as that of Meokja’s, you can look forward to more street eats being rolled out in weeks to come.
So, the next time those kimbap and tteokbokki cravings surface and you happen to be in Yishun, you know where to go!
